Any Given Sunday - Pacino - Peace by Inches

Given to me by my brother, on a mix tape, back in '99.

The background music in this is "Peace", by Paul Kelly, on "Soundings in Film".
See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcXgY69Sh14
or, better still, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsxlQWFsgb4. (That's my soul right there.)

The "six inches in front of your face", that's where we Live. It's the choices you make in that place that defines you, and over time, your life, until one day it's all over.
So many of us have grand plans for Out There or The Future, but never really focus on what's right in front of us, right now.

Now... What are you gonna do?

at 3:18 you can just see it on his face: "did he just say 6 inches in front of your face? Was that a freudian slip just now?"

[StHolyshi]

@rufia75 Actually... No.

Aaron Eckhart plays Nick Crozier, the offensive coordinator, pretty much the youngest and smartest guy in the room. That was the moment the message got through to him. He saw what was really being spoken here, and somehow managed to refrain from imagining dicks in his face. After almost six years of staring at this comment page, I have to think that's Oscar-worthy.

Sometimes I put a tissue over my penis and pretend it's a ghost.

@UltimateEboue ...And, if you get a rubber band and a little scarecrow hat, you can dance it around to "If I Only Had a Brain".

Probieren Sie es aus. Es ist ein Training!

@moviebuff383 Yes, I must confess, this is not the greatest piece of cinema ever shat out by Hollywood... Oliver Stone, in that late-90s taking-yourself-way-too-seriou­sly mode.

But I didn't care which flick this was from when I first heard it.

It's not about the movie, or who won, or the illuminati, the jerkoff at 2:54, or the 110 people with six inches dangling in front of their faces.

Live a little. Get older. Have life take some shit away from you, all of a sudden. Then, you'll get it.

@Clayman60x Hey, glad it meant something.

When Youtube blew up in 2006, it had been with me, firing me up, for about 7 years. It was the only thing I could think of worth sharing with the planet. They haven't tried to take it down, and I haven't tried to make a buck off it. As long as they keep it up here, so will I.

It'll be here waiting, for anyone who needs it.
